Romy October 31, 2025 General rating:Everything I actually mentioned in the previous question.
Alles heb ik bij de vorige vraag eigenlijk al genoemd.
Nature, peace & environment:Together with my friend and daughter I had a wonderful weekend in "the Blackbird". The cottage was cozy, beautifully situated, surrounded by beautifully placed greenery, making you even though there are other houses nearby you almost feel alone in the woods. The birds come to eat on the decking in front of the windows, you can cozy wood stove and are you with children than the adjacent children / care farm with playground and animals fantastic. Our daughter helped as a real help farmer, the animals fed, brushed and made a ride on the horse and even though it rained all weekend, it did not spoil the fun. Beds we found comfortable, the house cozy, neat and clean, it's nice and quiet and it's a great base for the Veluwe further explore from. With nice restaurants and a supermarket within walking distance and a store on the site itself, you're here for us, both with and without children. Highly recommended!
Samen met mijn vriend en dochter heb ik een heerlijk weekend gehad in 'de Merel'. Het huisje was gezellig, mooi gelegen, omgeven door mooi geplaatst groen ,waardoor je ondanks dat er andere huisjes in de buurt zijn je toch haast alleen in het bos waant. De vogeltjes komen eten op de vlonder voor de ramen, je kunt de houtkachel gezellig stoken en ben je met kinderen dan is de naastgelegen kinder/zorgboerderij met speeltuin en dieren fantastisch. Onze dochter hielp als heuse hulpboer; de dieren voeren, borstelde en maakte een ritje op het paard en ookal regende het het hele weekend flink, het mocht de pret niet drukken.
Bedden vonden wij comfortabel, het huisje gezellig, netjes en schoon, het is er heerlijk rustig en het is een geweldige uitvalsbasis om de veluwe verder vanuit te verkennen.
Met leuke horecagelegenheden en een buurtsuper op loopafstand èn een winkeltje op het terrein zelf zit je hier wat ons betreft echt goed, zowel met als zonder kinderen. Een aanrader!This text is automatically translated. -

Wendy October 3, 2022 General rating:It was a somewhat older cottage with some cracks here and there and not so well insulated. Nice and cozy and country style. For 6 people this cottage would have been a bit cramped. Since the final cleaning was not standard, I thought cleaning equipment and resources should be in the cottage instead of in a sanitary building. The central heating boiler and TV/internet cabinet were in a room behind/in the toilet. Which I found a little strange.
Het was een wat ouder huisje met wat kieren hier en daar en niet zo goed geïsoleerd. Lekker knus en in landelijke stijl. Voor 6 personen had dit huisje wel echt een beetje krap geweest.
Aangezien de eindschoonmaak er niet standaard in zat, vond ik wel dat schoonmaakspullen en middelen in het huisje moesten staan ipv in een sanitair gebouw. De cvketel en tv/internet kastje stonden in een ruimte achter/in de wc. Wat ik een beetje vreemd vond.Nature, peace & environment:You were actually on the outskirts of Otterloo and in itself in the woods. Also near the park Hoge Veluwe
Je zat eigenlijk aan de rand van Otterloo en op zich wel in het bos. Ook vlakbij het park Hoge Veluwe
